MAP: ATTENTION!!!!!

Detail of the trail called Cavalo Branco that cuts about 3 km. with strong descent to the dam and then come back up strong.

STRETCH between point D and F

See on the map (the map shows the longest road, it doesn't go down !!) - arriving at the top of the mountain just after the gate, turn left and go down a trail (servitude) through dense forest.

mapa cavalo branco.jpg

Continue on Rod. dos Tropeiros

ATTENTION !!!!
You can go on asphalt but have a better option on the farms.
Right after crossing the bridge over the dam, take the second exit on the right (see photo below)

Click below to see the photo of the dirt road exit

AGAIN notice!!
Strong climbs on the dirt road.
arriving at the top of the mountain
ATTENTION !!!!
Right after the gate, turn left on a very narrow path that goes through the dense woods (always leave gate closed)

Click below to see the photo of the beginning of the trail

soon after reaching the top of the mountain .

As you leave the forest, you will find a beautiful view of the Funil dam - follow the trail to the left until you enter the municipal road (ground)

Follow this road until the entrance to Areias city.

under:

Photo of the trail leaving the forest overlooking the Funil dam.

obs. Continuing from the top of the mountain along the road, I would go down to the dam down there and then go back up the road all the way down, adding 4 km. the descent and THEN ascent very difficult

Continuing the walk, you will re-enter the municipal road and continue straight through the farms you will reach the center of the city of Areias.
